Fyrebug Lets You Create Personalized Flash Games
Fyrebug offers you a simple way to create a customized flash game with your own photos and music. I found the process of creating a game simple and easy. Ads are served after each game has completed and the ads are served by MochiAds. Since you will want to play more than once, you will watch the ad.
The game creator is a flash application which walks you through the steps to create the customized game. Fyrebug offers about 40 games that can be customized. For some reason, the boxing game appears to be the most popular game to customize. Games can be shared and embedded. I’ve embedded a sample game below.
The Fyrebug customized game gallery shows about 100 games that have been created. The games are on the very basic side and probably won’t appeal to high-end gamers. But if you want to beat up your favorite blogger, Fyrebug works perfectly.
Jon at IndieStartups spoke with the Fyrebug founders regarding how he came up with the idea. Co-founder Jonathan Widro said, "My partner and I were working at 4kids Entertainment, and worked closely with flash games. We came up with the idea for Fyrebug, but kids cant upload their own images, so we decided to pursue the idea on our own."
